Answer / avantika roy
Back cross is the cross between progeny of 1st filial
generation with any of its parent.
Test cross is a part of back cross between f1 individuals
with homozygous recessive parent.and it is done to know the
unknown genotype(whether it is homozygous or heterozygous)

Answer / joseph
a test cross is the cross made between the progeny and the recessive parent,whereas the back cross means crossing of progeny with either dominant or recesive parent.

Answer / oyetunde oyeniran
Test cross helps to determine the genotype of the
f1 progeny while back cross helps to achieve
offsprings with similar genetic identity to that of
parent.

In cucumbers normal leaves (N) are dominant to curled leaves (n) and elongated fruit (L) is dominant to spherical fruit and these genes are linked on the same chromosome. If a pure-breeding normal-leaved, elongated fruit cucumber is crossed with a curled-leaved, spherical fruit cucumber, what will be the phenotype of the F1? the phenotypic ratio of the F2?
Consider two linked autosomal genes. The dominant allele C of the first gene causes cataracts of the eye, whereas its recessive allele produces normal eyes. The dominant allele P causes polydactyly (an extra finger) whereas its allele (p) produces a normal number of fingers. A man with cataracts and normal fingers marries a woman with polydactyly and normal eyes. Their son has both polydactyly and cataracts and he marries a woman with neither trait. What is the probability that their first child will have cataracts and polydactyly?

The rare trait of ocular albinism (almost complete absence of eye pigment) is inherited as a sex-linked recessive. A man with ocular albinism marries a woman who neither has this trait nor is a carrier. What would you predict about their offspring concerning this trait?
